100% incorrect. The other side of the bargaining table is manned by people whose job is to participate in negotiations. They have other duties as well, but none of them are elected officials. I'm glad you brought this up though, it's a very common fallacy among public sector union haters that they're essentially bargaining against themselves. Nothing could be further from the truth. I can tell you our most recent bargaining was full of acrimony, it's probably more contentious than most private sector negotiations.
